A live-action Zelda movie has been my dream since I first picked up an NES controller, but 2027 is testing my patience Miyamoto’s involvement is reassuring, though—just hoping they don’t Ganondorf-up the casting. The pressure’s on to make this feel as magical as the games, but if anyone can pull it off, it’s this team. Time to start a countdown (and maybe replay Ocarina of Time for the 10th time).

March 2027 feels forever away, but knowing Miyamoto’s involved gives me hope it’ll be worth the wait. Fingers crossed they nail the tone and don’t just give us another generic fantasy flick. Live-action Zelda could either be a masterpiece or a meme factory—no in-between. At least Avi Arad’s track record with adaptations gives me *some* cautious optimism.
